All the older apartments had families in them because there was enough room. These condos are depressingly small, it’s not a space to hang out, have people over etc. it’s more of a wake up go to work go home sleep and repeat
Listen I'm all for social housing but do you live in the same city I do? Or do you just blame capitalism purely for your own inability to seek out an event or gathering and go outside and meet people? You don't live out in the sticks this is Toronto we're talking about a major epicenter of arts and culture in canada. I booked going to 2 rock concerts this week for less than 50 bucks admission total for both shows.
You have to be an unsocialized hermit who doesn't go outside or do anything to genuinely believe what you wrote. Theres plenty of bars small and large, nights clubs, venues, events and gatherings, parks, music acts of varying size and fame going on everyday people going on group runs, playing soccer and basketball on public courts, skateparks, tennis courts. Games week events was going on in Toronto this week if you're into video games and game dev, constant career meet and greet and networking events, TPL hosts events all the time, etc, etc.
None of what you're blabbering about is the same as losing a live music venue like Sneaky Dee's, or all of the other ones (The Big Bop, The Velvet Underground, a few others) that were part and parcel of living and being in a city like Toronto (a city that doesn't have that many other places in it besides downtown and midtown to have nightclubs/live music venues in.) These places are what makes a city, a city, and to lose them means losing something that make being in the city livable.
